During her current pregnancy, Loraine has been extra careful to avoid foods that could potentially cause foodborne illness. Even

though she loves Greek salad, at lunch today she had to order something else because the waiter could not confirm whether or not the feta cheese on the salad was pasteurized. Why should pregnant women avoid unpasteurized cheese?
A) Unpasteurized cheese can contain prions that can cross the placental barrier and cause foot-and-mouth disease and spontaneous abortion or stillbirth.B) Unpasteurized cheese can contain botulism spores that can cross the placental barrier and can cause botulism and spontaneous abortion or stillbirth.C) Unpasteurized cheese can contain salmonella bacteria that can cross the placental barrier and cause salmonella and spontaneous abortion or stillbirth.D) Unpasteurized cheese can contain Listeria, a bacterium that can cross the placental barrier and cause listeriosis and spontaneous abortion or stillbirth.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-E

Explanation:

The soft cheese like Camembert, blue cheese and feta cheese are prepared from the unpasteurised milk.

Since the milk is not pasteurized therefore there are higher chances that the prepared cheese will have the micro-organism which could be lethal to humans like Listeria. Listeria is a bacteria which gets killed during the pasteurization process.

The pregnant woman should avoid eating the soft cheese as the cheese could contain the harmful bacteria like listeria which once ingested can enter the placenta and can kill the unborn babies or preterm delivery.

Thus, option-E is the correct answer.

Which of the following best describes gross primary productivity in an ecosystem?A. Gross primary productivity is the total amou
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

D. Gross primary productivity is the total amount of solar energy captured by producers through photosynthesis over time.

Explanation:

The gross primary productivity of an ecosystem represents the rate at which the producers of the system capture the solar energy so that they can perform the process of photosynthesis. Therefore, GPP is the total amount of photosynthetic energy captured per unit area over a given time period. Producers consume the part of the GPP for their own respiration and maintenance. Therefore, gross primary productivity is the sum total of the growth of producers per unit area per unit time and the energy used by them for respiration.

1. Discuss gravitational force in our universe and how it words. 2. Why is it critical to our universe? 3. Name at least three i
abruzzese [7]
<h2>Answer 1:</h2>

The gravitational force is a force that attracts any objects with mass. Gravity, or gravitation, is a natural phenomenon by which all things with mass or energy including planets, stars, galaxies, and even light are brought toward one another.

Answer 2:

Gravity keeps things together. It is a force that attracts matter towards it. Anything with mass creates gravity, but the amount of gravity is proportional to the amount of mass.

Gravitational force is critical to our universe because with out gravitational force we cannot walk on earth, all the matter on earth cannot stay on it with out gravity. Everything will start floating in air with out gravity.

<h2>Answer 3:</h2>

Gravity is the powerful force that glues our universe together.

  1. One of the most noticeable effects of gravity in the solar system is the orbit of the planets.
  2. The planet keeps moving but is always caught up in the push-pull forces caused by the interaction of these gravitational forces. As a result, the planet begins orbiting the sun.
  3. The same phenomenon causes the moon to orbit around the Earth except its the Earth's gravitational force not the sun's that keeps it moving around us.
